From New to Large Field Inflation: Comparison with WMAP3 | Q. Shafi

3 Jan 2007 | Abstract: | We briefly summarize and update a class of inflationary models from the early eighties based on a quartic (Coleman-Weinberg) potential for a gauge singlet scalar (inflaton) field. For vacuum energy scales comparable to the grand unification scale, the scalar spectral index n_s=0.94-0.97, in very good agreement with the WMAP three year results. The tensor to scalar ratio r<~0.14 while alpha=dn_s/d ln k=~-10^-3. For vacuum energy scales >~10^16 GeV, the inflationary scenario switches from `new’ to `large-field’ (Vproptophi^2) inflation. An SO(10) version naturally explains the observed baryon asymmetry via non-thermal leptogenesis. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0701052 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
